A command like this failed to include the required module:

Weird, this really should work.  Where is the library located?  Note
that for modules within the current directory, you have to explicitly
pass "pp -I ." to it.  This may arguably be called a bug.  Maybe.
 

I've now investigated this.

I'm using Windows XP Home, and I'm running each of the following 
commands inside a perl script using the system command.  I run the 
script using "perl script.pl" and the script contains a line like system 
"<command>"; where <command> is one of the following:

pp -M XMLTV::Ask::GDialog -p -o tmp/xmltv.par choose/tv_check/tv_check
pp -I lib/Ask/GDialog.pm -p -o tmp/xmltv.par choose/tv_check/tv_check
pp -I . -M XMLTV::Ask::GDialog -p -o tmp/xmltv.par choose/tv_check/tv_check
pp -I ./lib/ -M XMLTV::Ask::GDialog -p -o tmp/xmltv.par 
choose/tv_check/tv_check

The module is in C:\perl\site\5.8.0\lib\XMLTV\Ask\GDialog.pm and there's 
also a copy of the source of the module at  ./lib/Ask/GDialog.pm.

None of the above commands produces a PAR which contains a file 
lib/XMLTV/Ask/GDialog.pm, as I expect.

Are any of the above commands the correct way to try and do this?  If 
so, how can I help track down the problem?

Thanks very much,

Andy
